    I have not seen many books that make use of scholastic interpretation. [Y]

    I'm going to second Rosie's suggestions for Wilson and Goppelt. I just acquired Goppelt's first volume NT Theo in print and WOW is all I can say. So add his 2 volumes on NT Theo. He was a great scholar and this would be more than useful.
